Request an Oracle Data Dump File from Our Database Team

Your Account Executive can submit a request to our Database Team to export a database dump file (.dmp Oracle file) with your data. An additional request will go to our AOS team to retrieve all of your stored documents.

Pros : You get your entire data load, including custom fields, as well as documents that are stored in the system.Cons : The database file is hard to read: there is no way you can read this file unless you upload it to an Oracle database and re-establish the relationships between the tables. The documents are stored on a separate file server and must be extracted separately using a separate process by the AOS team. In doing so, there is no organization to the documents, and they are all referenced by their GUID.Cost : There is a cost associated with this download, depending on how long it takes the team to create the file. Check with your AE/ CAE for more information or to get this process started.

Export Via Kick-StartsWhether you have remote consulting hours or not, you can use one of our consultants to export your data in the form of reports or kick-starts, or you can run these reports yourself:

Pros : The reports are easy to read and can be imported in a variety of applications; they can be customized to include any groupings and views you’d like.Cons : Documents will have to be downloaded separately.Cost : It is free if you can run the reports yourself (all you would need is a system admin login), or if you can use remaining remote consulting hours. If you are interested in purchasing remote consulting for this, please talk with your AE/CAE.For more information about using Kick-Starts to export data, see "Exporting Data from Workfront via Kick-Starts."
